Maintenance
ALWAYS UNPLUG shredder before performing any maintenance. It is important to empty
the waste bin regularly to ensure the smooth operation of the cutting cylinders. The
shredder will not operate when the bin is full. Regular oiling is also necessary for proper
performance. It is recommended to use shredder oil every few weeks. Do not use
flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosols of any kind on or near
product at any time. Shredder oil may be purchased at most retailers in the shredder
section of the store.

and let cool for approximately 30 minutes.
If the light below the bin full icon is illuminated, this means the shredder bin needs
to be emptied. Unplug shredder and empty the shredder bin.
